What belongs on a commission ticket
Ceramics, candles, jewelry, and stationery share the same problem: the customer is not adding a SKU to a cart. They are asking you to make something — and the specs should live on one ticket.
- Specs and dimensions
- Materials and glaze or finish
- Quantities and small-batch runs
- Lead time
- Reference photos
- Deposit before you start
- Pickup or ship date
Invoice first — make second
Conversation → ticket → quote → Shopify checkout. Bench or kiln time starts when they pay, not when they meant to.

FAQ
Questions makers ask
Does IntoPaid work for makers?
Yes. IntoPaid is custom order management software for independent makers: commissions that start as a message, get quoted from Shopify, and start on the bench only after checkout. You still design, bake, or make — IntoPaid is the layer that turns the ask into a paid Shopify order.
Someone emails “4 bowls, speckled glaze, pickup in two weeks?” What do I do?
Forward the email to your IntoPaid inbound address (or send it there directly). It becomes a ticket you quote from your Shopify catalog and lock for pickup — same queue as DMs.
Will this replace the spreadsheet I use for commissioned pieces?
That’s the point of one ticket: customer, conversation, quote, payment, and pickup together — not a row you forget to update when the date moves.
Where do specs, materials, and lead time live?
On the commission ticket, next to the reference photos. You quote from Shopify, take a deposit, and start when checkout clears — not from a DM you have to scroll back to.
Do I need Shopify? Does IntoPaid replace it?
You need Shopify today — that's how IntoPaid builds quotes and invoices from your catalog. IntoPaid does not replace Shopify. Shopify still handles Product → Cart → Checkout. IntoPaid is the custom-order layer in front: conversation → ticket → quote → Shopify checkout.
What happens when someone emails me instead of DMs?
Forward the email to your IntoPaid address (or send it there directly). It becomes a ticket you can quote, invoice, and lock for pickup — same queue as Instagram.
Can customers pay through IntoPaid?
They pay a Shopify invoice through Shopify checkout. IntoPaid creates the quote and draft invoice from your catalog, then marks the ticket paid when checkout completes. Customers do not need an IntoPaid account.
